How does baptism relate to the gospel?

May one be rebaptized?

If the previous baptism did not conform to the process, reason, or any other related thing of the Scriptures, yes! After all, those baptized under John’s baptism were rebaptized in the name of Christ to receive the Holy Spirit (Acts 19:1-5).

What does the Lord do as one is baptized?

Since baptism saves us, the Lord adds the saved to His church (Acts 2:47). There is one body, the church, and there is one baptism into that church by one Spirit (Ephesians 1:22-23; 4:4-6; 1 Corinthians 12:12-13).
